What happens if an image is uploaded that infringes the rules?

Any user that uploads an image or photograph, for which they do not have authorship, or for which they do not have the exclusive rights of usage, might be legally infringing industrial, intellectual or personal image rights of third parties (for further information please refer to http://www.wipo.int) and as such is committing a criminal offense.

Users uploading content whose exploitation rights and/or authorship do not own, will be reported, notified, and if within a legal, established period the user does not remove the content in question, Agora is authorized to eliminate the account and the content.

In the event that the content, even if it is their own, does not comply with the conduct guidelines and is therefore inadequate, after an internal control procedure reviews all images presented and flags those which detects are infringing the rules i.e. photos that "infringe human rights, contain pornography or defamation, or which foster hatred, mistreatment, discrimination, violent behavior, racism and/or xenophobia. Images must be apt for any audience, and not be in contention with the law and/or public order.", Agora will contact the user and, if the content is not removed by the user themselves, Agora is authorized to eliminate both the content and the account.

Agora has the right to advise the corresponding authorities in the case where a complaint is made, or an image is reported.
